Removed Discord startup service and added caching directly to actions that require it. Reworked OAuth setup to handle creating claims and made several changes to move responsibility away from DiscordRestClient startup service. This includes adding token saving directly to the OAuth creating ticket event, removing old OAuth event for fetching user info and creating claims, and updating controller bases to initialize DiscordRestClient using the token from the cache. Also, 'RedisCachingService' is now renamed to 'DistributedCachingService', and created 'GuildsController' to handle guild related operations.

Implemented caching for Discord user guilds in both GuildsController and ApiControllerBase. This will improve performance. Also, switched the JSON serializer from System.Text.Json to Newtonsoft.Json to handle nullable values more appropriately and ensure compatibility. Additionally, a new model "DiscordPartialGuild" was created to simplify guild information.

Simplified the caching mechanism in the GenericRepositoryWithCaching class. Converted multiple lines of code into a single, concise line using the GetOrAddAsync method. This change reduces redundancy and improves code readability.

Made `IconUrl` nullable in `DiscordPartialGuild` model. Removed the unnecessary `Discord.Rest` namespace usage in `GuildsController`. Additionally, implemented a new method in `ApiControllerBase` named `CheckGuildAccessAsync` to verify user's access to a specified guild.

The controllers TodoController, GuildsController, and ApiControllerBase have been adjusted to include DiscordSocketClient as part of their constructor parameters. The Blink3 project file has also been updated to include additional package references for the integration of Discord functionality. More specifically, new logic was added in the 'InitDiscordClientAsync' method of the ApiControllerBase to wait for the DiscordBotClient to be ready before proceeding.

This update introduces the new BlinkGuildsController for handling CRUD operations on BlinkGuild items. A FindByIdsAsync method has also been added to BlinkGuildRepository to allow retrieval of a collection of BlinkGuild entities based on specified IDs. The CheckGuildAccessAsync function has been corrected in ApiControllerBase to return a ProblemForUnauthorizedAccess if any guild Ids match, rather than all. Additionally, a ULongToStringConverter has been introduced to handle ulong to string conversion for JSON serialization.

Added new HTTP repository, BlinkGuildHttpRepository, for accessing BlinkGuild entities and registered it in the application's services. Also, introduced changes in MainLayout including retrieval of DiscordPartialGuild and other guild related features. Some visual components were also modified, such as changing the theme to dark mode. Furthermore, redundant or unnecessary CSS and mock data were removed to improve the codebase.

Three new pages for 'Temporary VC', 'Wordle', and 'Staff' settings have been added. Each page accepts a 'GuildId' parameter and displays it in the view. The design for the main layout has also been updated, with a border added to the bottom of the top row.

The CSS property for sidebar2 content border color is now linked to the Bootstrap border color variable. In the TempVC, Wordle, and Staff Razor pages, the border-bottom class has been removed from the h1 elements, hence these headings will no longer display a bottom border.

This update adds multiple endpoints to GuildsController, including functionality to return all guilds, all categories for a guild, and all channels for a guild. To support this, a new DiscordPartialChannel model is also added to represent Discord channels in a simplified form.

This commit implements a Wordle settings page in the application that allows users to customize color attributes for different parts. A form has been added that lets the users specify their preferred background, text, correct, misplaced, or incorrect colors. These user preferences are now fetched from the API and saved upon submission. This required updates to the BlinkGuild entity and corresponding conversions, adjustments to NewtonsoftJson usage, and the addition of JsonPatch functionality.

Refactored Wordle.razor and TempVC.razor pages in the Blink3.Web project. Changes include using Blink3.Core.Helpers, updating references to _notificationMessage, and employing ULongToStringConverter for proper JSON serialization. TempVC.razor is significantly expanded to handle guild settings.

Introduced service interfaces for BlinkGuild configuration and Discord guild interaction. Existing usage of HttpClient in TempVC.razor and Wordle.razor pages have been migrated to these new service interfaces. This leads to cleaner, more maintainable code that adheres more closely to the Dependency Inversion Principle.

The Staff.razor page now supports viewing, selecting, and editing of staff settings. This includes loading channel options, displaying an informative message, and saving changes made to the settings. Meanwhile, corrected method names in the DiscordGuildService, making them appropriately relay their function.

The commit introduces a reset functionality to the 'Wordle' page in the Blink3 Web application. The reset button allows users to return settings to their default state. Additionally, CSS rules for the brand image's height and width in the application's sidebar have been added.

The favicon link was replaced and additional web app icons were added to the root index.html file. A new web app manifest and browser config files were also added, which provide more meta information and icon options for different devices and OS scenarios. The theme color was also specified.

The commit includes a series of enhancements across multiple web pages. Changes include replacing text-based notification messages with ToastService notifications to provide better visibility of system responses. Additionally, PreloadService has been integrated into the data-fetching processes of all referred pages, enhancing the UX with loading indicators.

Updated the confirmation dialog messages in TodoList.razor and Wordle.razor to make them more explicit about the permanence of the action. Additionally, added a new confirmation dialog for the reset action in Wordle.razor to warn the user about the irreversible effects of their actions.

A new JsonConverter, NullableULongToStringConverter, has been added to handle nullable ulong values. This converter is appended to serializers' settings in Program.cs and BlinkGuildConfigService.cs where required. Additionally, certain event handlers within various .razor pages have been altered or removed for better logic flow, notably in Staff.razor, Wordle.razor, and TempVC.razor, and the listener for AuthenticationStateChanged has been added to MainLayout.razor.
